Colorful samba performances—with and without stilts—welcome guests and set the stage for a fiery, joyful evening. At the Garden Theater, Marcia Bittencourt and her top-notch musicians present the magic of bossa nova and samba—a tropical seduction! On the rehearsal stage, Soraia Drummond and the Soul Rebelz reinvent the samba-reggae genre with warm soul and plenty of groove. Magnificent Baroque equestrian artistry can be admired at the Western Crescent. The exciting capoeira dance show brings an authentic Brazilian atmosphere to the Children’s Meadow, inviting everyone to join in.

At 10:30 p.m., the team from Brazil will take the stage. For the team, participating in the International Fireworks Competition is a dream come true and a great honor to represent their country. Maria Cristina Tiberio, owner and designer of the show at the Herrenhäuser Gardens: “It seems like a place where time has stood still—so magnificent, elegant, and beautiful. A fairytale setting for telling amazing stories with fireworks.” Reason and Emotion: A Duel of Passions—that is the theme of their show. Her fireworks aim to showcase the creative process—the eternal contrast between reason and emotion. From production to design, precision and technical expertise are essential, but the goal is to touch the hearts of the audience and evoke a range of emotions. It takes a great deal of work to create just a few minutes of splendor—for the Brazilian team, a metaphor for life. With a soundtrack consisting mainly of instrumental and classical pieces, the audience is invited to remain calm while being swept up in a variety of sensations, amplified by the right effects, which create suspense and emotion and shift the rhythm of the show.

The Team: Fireworks do Brasil
The team is based near Rio de Janeiro and has an incredible track record: they have been recognized by the World Record Company for their shows and have won international competitions, such as the 2013 Shanghai Jinshan International Beach Music Fireworks Festival in China; they are the only Brazilian team to be a member of the American Pyrotechnics Association; and they stand not only for fun and entertainment, but also for sustainability. Being able to accompany stars like Katy Perry, J-Lo, Eminem, and Bruno Mars with fireworks during their performances is a dream for many pyrotechnicians—and has long been a reality for the Fireworks do Brasil team!
